[Verse 1] Your shoes by the door Still wet from the rain I fold the dish towel Like it can ease the strain The kettle clicks once Then sits in the hush You lean on the counter I feel your pulse rush [Pre-Chorus] Say it plain Say it slow I can hold What you won't show We can breathe In the seam I stay here You don't leave [Chorus] Keep me close Keep me close In the crush of the room Keep me close Hold this shape Hold this shape We can bend, we can break Then hold this shape [Verse 2] There's a chip in the mug By the line in your hand You hide the sharp edge But I understand The sink overflows With one clean plate We laugh at the mess Then we both wait [Pre-Chorus] Say it plain Say it now I can take The weight somehow No grand plan No white smoke Just your breath On my coat [Chorus] Keep me close Keep me close In the crush of the room Keep me close Hold this shape Hold this shape We can bend, we can break Then hold this shape [Bridge] I know the nights Can split the floor I know the small hurt Always wants more So put your name In my palm Let the storm pass Let us stay calm [Breakdown] Close Closer than before Close Till the shaking slows One bowl One light One hand One night [Chorus] Keep me close Keep me close In the crush of the room Keep me close Hold this shape Hold this shape We can bend, we can break Then hold this shape [Outro] Your shoes by the door Dry now, like me We leave the last plate For the morning to see
